From 805 Bully Friends and Family

805 Bully Friends and Family is committed to the promotion of compassionate andhumane treatment of animals throughout Ventura County CA and other surrounding areas. The Organization works to educate the general public in areas of animal care, especially the need for spaying and neutering of animals to prevent further overpopulation in the region. We strive to create a community of educated owners who are able to dispel rumors regarding pit bull and other associated breeds. We work with individuals to help re-home their pets without surrendering them into the animal shelter system.
